About George Dabney, Sr.

George Dabney was born in England or Wales previous to the emigration of his parents to this country. He married in Virginia soon after coming over and was already married when his father, Cornelius d'Aubigne (Dabney) married Sarah Jennings (or Jennens) in 1721.

Rev. R. L. Dabney relates about the same facts, and says: "That his son, George, and family, took umbrage at his father's second marriage, he being himself then married and having children, and separated themselves from his father and second family of children, and moved away, and would have no communication with them.'
